Cooles ungewöhnliches Hotel an guter Lage
Pros:

Die Pension ist eine lebendige Alternative zu einem klassischen Hotel. Stylisch eingerichtet mit schönen Blicken Richtung Stadt und einem eigenen "Schwimmbad" vor der Haustüre.

Cons:

Zimmerreinigung - manchmal hat man es gemerkt, dass sie da war, manchmal nicht.

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und ich würde jederzeit wiederkommen
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, Frühstück und Abendessen sehr gut und das Personal ist ausgesprochen freundlich.
Es gibt rund um die Uhr unbegrenzt Trinkwasser in schönen Flaschen, Tee und Kaffee in einer gut sortierten Teeküche

Cons:

Die Zimmer und das Bad waren relativ klein, sehr heiß (Sommer und viel Sonne) und schlecht zu lüften, keine Klimaanlage. Zum Glück hat es nachts draußen gut abgekühlt.
An zwei Abenden war direkt vor dem Hotel bis 1:00 nachts lautstark Party

Zeer aangenaam verblijf in een rustige en groene omgeving
Pros:

Het authentieke

Cons:

Minder was de hygiëne van de tafels bij het ontbijt: suikerpotjes en tafels niet zo goed afgewassen…

Angenehm, das angegliederte Brauerei-Restaurant ist ein besonderes Highlite für den Schlummertrunk
Pros:

Pension Homeland war gut, wir würden dort wieder übernachten. Man muss sich einfach bewusst sein, was man zu diesem Preis erwarten kann.
Die ehemaligen Offizierszimmer haben fast etwas kultiges an sich, wir haben sie liebgewonnen :-)

Cons:

Nicht ganz begreiflich: es gibt zwar einen (zwar aussergewöhnlich langsamen) Lift, man kann aber im Lift nicht den dritten Stock anwählen (Lift holen im dritten Stock geht aber).
Im zweiten Stock öffnet sich die Lifttüre nur, wenn nur eine Person im Lift ist, bei zwei Personen fährt er zwar in den zweiten Stock, die Türe öffnet sich aber nicht.

Pros:

Hotelul este situat la 20 min de mers pe jos, de gara centrala si centru - Piata Dam, pe malul apei, intr-un parc. Apartamentul a fost spatios si bine compartimentat. Micul dejun bun si adaptat preferintelor.
